CISA released an Alert today on devices incorporating older versions of multiple BlackBerry QNX products affected by a BadAlloc vulnerability. A malicious actor could exploit this vulnerability to take control of an affected system or cause a denial-of-service condition.
Because devices incorporating older versions of BlackBerry QNX products support critical infrastructure and national critical functions, CISA is strongly urging all organizations whose devices use affected QNX-based systems to immediately apply the mitigations provided in CISA Alert AA21-229A and Blackberry Advisory QNX-2021-001
